There was a lot of switching-around of lines from characters and even in the order of the books. For instance, there are even scenes and foreshadowing that happens in the appendicies in ROTK.<BR>There are changes made that I'm unhappy with, and changes that I was very happy with. I've watched as many as the special features/interviews/making of/behind the scenes...etc so I can get a better understanding of why these changes were made. Before I even watched those I realized that certain changes were necessary in order for the story to make more sense. With an open mind, I enjoyed the films a lot more.<P>I'm always open to critizism, but there are people who are just OUT THERE when it comes to bashing the films. And that's okay - because there's always the books. As long as film doesn't EVER become a replacement for the books, then I'm a happy camper. YAY FOR LITERACY!!!<P>***off topic note***<BR>Spanking of literacy, I saw the most disturbing picture the other day. It was a picture of (ugh I hate that I have to utter this name) Britney Spears holding a book and the sign just says "Read" then her name at the bottom. Umm I'm not a pop expert or anything, but where's the credibility in that?
